2) Configuration

The datasources made available by WDS are configured through the JSON file stored in:

/src/main/webapp/datasources/datasources.json

Each object in this file describes a datasource as per the example below:

[
   {
      "id"        :   "MYDATASOURCE",
      "driver"    :   "PostgreSQL",
      "url"       :   "jdbc:postgresql://127.0.0.1:5432/my_datasource",
      "dbName"    :   "my_db",
      "username"  :   "my_username",
      "password"  :   "my_password",
      "create"    :   false,            
      "retrieve"  :   true,
      "update"    :   false,
      "delete"    :   false
   }
